5. Dark Matter Reactor and Charging Cables:
Big thanks to jbox1 for his code used as base for Dark Matter Reactor and Charging Cables.
Purifier Beam and Goliath class cannon can be connected only throught Charging Cables or Power Cable mark II. For balance reasons (You need balance amount of modules and Connected Cables for maximal DPS).
5. Extender Cable:
You can attach this to your weapon and it will work as expansion where you can connect standard weapon modules and power cables
Incompatible modules: Distorter Module, Upgrade to Mark II Module, Base Shield Module
Comptible power cables: Power Cable, Mark II cable
Showcase of extenders:
6. Cooling system:
Parts of cooling system:
Cooling Core - Main part of cooling system. Requires energy to work. When connected correctly, it will decrease heat production of weapon by 500%
Pipe-Output - Extracting hot water from weapon to the cooling core. Connect to the weapon with side marked with red square and connect to the cooling core with side marked with red triangle, you can interconnect them. Green pointers should be pointing in direction from weapon.
Pipe-Input - Transporting cooled water back to the weapon. Connect to the weapon with side marked with blue trangle and connect to the cooling core with side marked with blue square, you can interconnect them. Green pointers should be pointing in direction from Cooling core.
Examples of usage:
7. Temperature - Weapons can now overheat. Temperature of weapon is shown in bar under HP. When is overheaten it will be damaged every second. Temperature is being incresed by modules and decreased by cooling system.
